AOS Biometrics Retake!

[manila_2005 0]

Hello Everyone,

Re: I-485 Adjustment of Status

I had my biometrics completed last July 23. Today I receive a notice of new appointment for Aug 16 stating that FBI was unable to process my fingercard, and that in order for USCIS to continue processing my application, it is necessary to have my fingerprints re-taken. It further states that it will be completed at no addtional expense. Yeap, no additional expense, but that means another 6 hours drive back and forth to the nearest ASC. I will call USCIS on Monday about this. In the meantime, is there anyone here who had the same experience/situation? Shall I ignore this appointment notice? My case is transferred to California Service Center now. I wonder why this thing happen. If there is something wrong with fingerscan, they should have known it same day, wouldn't you agree?

Need help, pls.

Hi I dont know if my reply is late (hope it's not, and hope this helps)

I had to go to a second biometrics for my AOS back in the day too...I did call the info line and they werent able to tell me why I had to go back and do it over but the USCIS office was less than an hour away in my case so I didnt really think of ignoring the letter...the lady who redid my fingerprints said my file must have been lost but she wasnt sure

It's a hassle but we have to jump through the hoops until we get done with this immigration process. Goodluck with the rest of your journey!

its probably not a good idea to ignore it, if they sent u the card it means they need u to retake the fingerprints. not sure why it took all this time to ask u to redo it but its better safe than sorry and get it redone.
